Forms :: Access 2010 - Form Shows Similar Match In 1 Table - Alter Another Table?
Dec 16, 2014I have two tables (Access 2010). One with a list of names (List1) and another with a very similar list of names (List2), but they differ in very small ways. For example, List1 might have John Smith, and List2 would have Smith, John L.; and Smith, John. List2 also has a unique ID associated with these names that I need to append to List1.
I need to design a form that will allow me to look up names in List1, and have it return all names that are similar in List2. I then need to be able to choose with record in List2 matches with the List1 entry (based on a few other columns in List2, such as birth date) and have the form add that unique ID to the List1 record.
PS: I am using Access 2010

Jul 25, 2005Hopefully someone can help....
I'm trying to change the name of a column in a table using SQL. I've tried different combinations but always get
"Syntax error in Alter Table statement"
SQL I've tried
alter table tblImport
rename column F1 to [Date];*
alter tblImport
rename column F1 to [Date];
alter table tblImport
rename F1 to [Date];
I've checked this out via some SQL sites & think the first version (*) is correct....can someone throw light on this? I'm using Access2000
ALTER TABLE And SEPARATE DATA SQL STATEMENTS
Jun 7, 2005Helo…please really need your help.
I designed a small desktop database to automatically import some Log files. A sample of a transmit log file (emails sent from our rural email stations) looks like this when imported in access.
Date Time Direction SenderMessageID
03062005 133501To InternetemailX@ab.comBlablabla
03062005 125001To InternetemailQ@ab.comBlablabla
03062005 125001To InternetemailZ@ab.comBlablabla
03062005 125001To InternetemailA@ab.comBlablabla
I would like to be able to query all emails sent between one date and another. However, the date here is recorded has a string or text. I would like to automatically add a field with the date as Date/Time datatype in the Table. I think I should be able to do this with a few SQL statement like ALTER TABLE myTable ADD COLUMN NewDate AS datetime…and then another SQL statement to separate data and put it into this new field.
Then I could query for BETWEEN Date1 and Date 2 easily.
I’m pretty close but been trying for a while now and always error messages as results. I think I really NEED help this time.
Thank you,

Queries :: Alter Table With Auto-increment Field?
Mar 10, 2015I am attempting to update an oracle table using MS Access.
One of the fields to be updated is a primary key number field.
I'd like to use the autoincrement field to update that field.
My sql is:
Code:
Alter table testAutoNum Add column progid autoincrement (1001,2)
This sql nicely creates the new field in the table, but it doesn't start at 1001 and increment by 2; it starts and 1 and increments by 1.It is also creating an autonumber and I need it to be a number.
What am I doing wrong?

I have an SQL Query named "uno" that is showing the following: "UPDATE [Input] SET [Input].Loc_Lng = [Loc-1L].Combo8, [Input].Loc_ID = "1", [Input].Loc_Desc = "xxxx";" I am trying to have the combo box update the values from the combo box into a blank table. When I try to run this, it comes up with the error: "Too few parameters. Expected 1". Any idea what that means, and then how to fix?

Insert Statment
Nov 8, 2006I was wondering if anyone knows how to insert more than one record at a time with a SQL statment? I have a form that asks the person how many records they would like to put into the system, this is a text box that they can enter a number.
My SQL for input one record is this:
[CODE]
SQL = "INSERT INTO tblTemp ([Name],[Number]) VALUES (TName,Len)"
DoCmd.RunSQL SQL
If the person wants to put in more than one I want the system to take the Number field and add 1 to it for ever record the person asks to be put into the system. the Name and Number fields will be that same except the Number field will increase by 1 for however many they choose to put in.

Select Statment Problem
Jun 13, 2005hello all,
i have a pretty simple problem related to ACCESS query.
I have two tables having similiar columns ( i had to do this to compare the values given to me, because both the table data came from different sources)
The tables named are
OFFICERS
token
full_name
division
EMPLOYEE
token
full_name
division
Now the table EMPLOYEE contains more than 5000 records and the table OFFICERS contains around 2400 records which are already present in the EMPLOYEE table.
Now I want to build a query that will return me all the records in the EMPLOYEE table that are not present in the OFFICERS table. The criteria for comparing 'full_name'. so the query should return me 2600 records that are not present in the OFFICERS TABLE.
I tried doing this
Code:" SELECT DISTINCT EMPLOYEE.full_name,EMPLOYEE.token FROM EMPLOYEE,OFFICERS WHERE EMPLOYEE.full_name<> OFFICERS.full_name"
But this query returns me records that is not present in the OFFICERS table as well as some more 1000 records which are present in both tables.
please do help
thanks a lot

Query Results From Iif Statment Confusing
Jun 1, 2006I've got an unbound form which has a field that I need to relate to from a query, I've got no problems relating to specific records, but I've not quite cracked the ability to select all other records if the field is left at 0.
I've tried using in the query under the 'table' field (for selecting a specific group of people seated at a particular table)
Iif([Forms]![TablePlannerFrm]![TableSel]=0,>0,[Forms]![TablePlannerFrm]![TableSel])
Which I thought would evaluate a true/false with the two results coming from the two options, so if the Table selected on the unbound form was set to 0 then it would set the criteria to >0 (everything table 1 and up), or if anything else was selected other than 0, it would use the number from the unbound form from the TableSel field.
I'm getting blank results from both positive and negative results. I assume that I'm not using the Iif statement correctly, or that there is another way of approaching the problem that my headache is blocking :)
Thanks everyone
